Fi360 Conference

The Fi360 Conference is the industry’s premier professional development conference. Founded in 2004, the Fi360 Conference was originally designed to deliver designees with the practical, fiduciary based content they desired to advance their practice. In just a few short years, the agenda grew to boast over 35 unique, education sessions taught by some of the most sought-after industry leaders. As a result, financial services professionals from all over the world asked to participate in the event.

The Fi360 Conference hosts over 750 investment professionals who are looking to grow their fiduciary knowledge base by participating in insightful learning sessions, innovative workshops and thought-provoking discussions.

The Financial Decisions team utilized this great opportunity to earn CE credit that can be applied to many different industry credentials including the AIF, AIFA, CFP, CIMA, CFA, and more. They were given the opportunity to complete their yearly CE requirements for their Fi360 designations and earn over 10 hours of CE for other industry credentials at this one event.
